Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'libav' package(s) announced via the DLA-1809-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Two more security issues have been corrected in multiple demuxers and decoders of the libav multimedia library.

CVE-2018-15822

The flv_write_packet function in libavformat/flvenc.c in libav did not check for an empty audio packet, leading to an assertion failure.

CVE-2019-11338

libavcodec/hevcdec.c in libav mishandled detection of duplicate first slices, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and out-of-array access) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted HEVC data.

For Debian 8 Jessie, these problems have been fixed in version 6:11.12-1~
deb8u7.

We recommend that you upgrade your libav packages.
